so you want something akin to how the .NET Framework was included in Windows...

what about different applications requiring different Electron versions?

In such rare case, it would download the required version. Having two separate Electron versions is still better than having ten in total, for each app separately.

I see Electron has a point release approximately every two weeks.

Factor in, let's say (conservatively), 5 Electron based applications on a given system. I posit everyone of those will depend on a different Electron version.
